Tyler, The Creator: Difference between revisions

De facto leader and, as his name suggests, creator of [[OFWGKTA|Odd Future]]. '''Tyler, The Creator''' (born '''Tyler Gregory Okonma''', aka Ace Creator, Wolf Haley, Young Nigga) saw the talents he and his peers had after years of being friends and decided to form a group where they could make their own rules. His song "Bastard" explicitly states, "I feel we're more talented than 40 year old rappers talking about Gucci when they have kids they haven't seen in years." Tyler's interest in music started a young age, when he would design his own albums with cover art and tracklists. By fourteen, he was teaching himself how to play the piano and by fifteen, he was producing his own music.

** First time you hear that, you reverse you headphones, because you think you're wearing them backwards.

** Although, eventually in the chorus they do say left and right on the left and right headphones.

* [[Rock Me, Asmodeus]]: Tyler doesn't care about religion and uses Satanic imagery primarily to piss people off.

* [[Sanity Slippage Song]]: Pretty much all of ''Goblin'' after "Her". {{spoiler|Tyler hits the [[Despair Event Horizon]], [[Mode Lock|Mode Locking]] on his Wolf Haley persona (the crowdless rally at the beginning of "Sandwitches" being very telling of the loss of sanity.) Ultimately, Tyler snaps back to sanity after shooting the rest of OFWGKTA in cold blood during an intervention.}} If you want to count "Analog" (a track about a trip to the beach) as part of that, go right ahead.
